These taxes, based upon a percentags of the chargés paid for transportation and the transmission of teleiphone and telegraph messages COTigtitute a greater burden on the west section of . the . country-—due to the great distances . which western freight and messages must travel to reach markets and centers of population in the east.

STATE CHA CHAMBER SAN FRANCISCO, Ten. 24.—With the national income at the highest level in history, there can be no juetification. for roll. back subsidier, which are, in effect, a public dole to every citizen regardless of his financial}. condition or need, Preston . Hotchkiss, president of the Califoinia State: Chamber of Commerce, de. ¢lared in a statement issued yesterday. . “Purthermore,”’ Hotchkiss stated “ample power has been given to the ‘administration to hold all prices in line. If the administration refuses to do its duty, the blame for higher [ost cannot be ascribed to lack of a) consumer subsidy. The responsibility must rest squarely on the adminis. , ‘7 . tration’s lack of courage. to. use the es ‘bowers. “The argument most frenuientty ‘used in favor of roll back subsidies. ig that they. will prevent inflation. , . Actaally the reverse is true because {the subsidy. is inflationary tothe ex-. . tent that it releases more money to ". de spent for scarce goods. Purthermore, subsidies are no brake on n .

Mr. Craemer points out, and the same tax. discrimination applies to-all California farm shipments east,* totaling mont \155,000 ‘carloads. Lumber, oil, mineral products, newsprint, canned goods and all other commodities originating in. the west are likewise ‘heavily penalized by the percentage of the charge paid tax. “If tax revenue from freight service igs necessary,” asserts Craemer, “most certainly a flat weight tax would be more ‘equitable.’ The discrimination against western growers and business men is also evidenced in the operation of the present tax on’ telephone and _ telegraph tolls. A California shipper, checking by phone, for example, on a shipment east pays a tax of $20 on every $100. spent in phone charges, while the Florida shipper pays only $11 in tax. “The unfairness of this method of taxation to the California shipper is clearly apparent.” declares (Craemer. “A possible solution lies in fixing a, maximum amount or’ ceiling upon the tax to be paid on these serreMUGWUMP "REOPENING Reopening of the main tunnel ai the old Mugwump gold mine has been completed* and future operations include dewatering of the shaft. and. reconditioning of the old workings.
